Warrior of Light

It was clarified in another translation that "simplified" was not the correct word to use, but rather "streamlined", which could mean Type-0 combat without the things that annoyed you.

I freaked hard over the combat system, but I'm waiting to see how it plays before stressing myself anymore... I think this "petition" is a bit too much too fast... wait until we get more details on the combat with 1 to 1 demonstration of video with controls before we react like this.

Also, I haven't seen anywhere anything about a Japanese petition... I don't really want to bother with Facebook just to see a link, perhaps you could provide a way for us to search for it?

People are really beginning to overreact now. Especially with a petition making the rounds. There are way too factors or lack thereof to be giving assessments of the combat system. Reserve judgement for the demo when you can experience the system with your own eyes and not vague, mistranslated observations from various forums.

I truly hope I will. I'm hoping this battle system explanation/interview was just something lost in translation, & we'll all love the game once the demo's released. But based on current evidence, forgive me for being less than enthused.

"Current Evidence"? I hardly call it that, considering it was just a quick demo for the sole purpose of showing everyone that the trailer was not pre-rendered. And him saying " Holding defend button to evade something the player was answering on the spot. He kinda shuddered before making his response.

You do have every right to feel the way you do, I just personally don't see the evidence of it all atm. We still barely don't know anything.

Really I would just want a definite inclusion of party switching. Once the demo drops, I believe most would have a more opportune time to give Tabata and SE feed back on the battle system as a whole. Since that is the point of the demo.

By then those who've played would have better grasp of what was being delivered in the game. And voicing to SE what works well and what doesn't.

Simply asking them to change it back now doesn't garuntee the E3 version didn't have its own share of faults and hang-ups. Waiting after the demo could make for better more informed feedback, which could lead to an even better more substantial improvements to the overall experience. Especially since SE at that time will be all ears and gauging the reception of the demo.
